I worked in travel publishing for seven years. Overall it was great. I met fantastic people and for the most part the work was interesting and challenging enough. Despite this, I'm not really so keen to go back to the same job after I finish my year's maternity leave. I want to try something new. Knowing this, I spent some time the other night trying to think of what I've learnt over the last seven years that will translate to a new and exciting career. I couldn't think of much. However, I have learned that Greenland's polar ice cap is 3km thick and if it melts the world's sea levels will rise by 2m; Bulgarians shake their heads to mean 'yes' and nod to indicate 'no'; and Thailand is the only Southeast Asian nation never to have been colonised.
So, who wants to to give me a kick-ass, highly paid job in TV?
Anyone?
I know shit (see above).
